    Description

    In 1977/78 ANARE carried out a summer operation that was a continuation of a multi-year project in the Enderby Land region, commenced in the 1974/75 season. Programs for 1977/78 included survey, high level photography, geochronolgy, structural geology, petrology, geophysics and glaciology. The programs were air supported from a field base near Mt. King (67 degrees 04'S, 52 degrees 52'E).

    Planning and daily logbooks for the program, as well as the end of season report, have been archived at the Australian Antarctic Division. These documents have been scanned and are available for download from the provided URL. The dataset download contains the following files:
